Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 291 Desk
Upon hearing Jiang Moli's question, Lu Cheng subconsciously asked, "Do you want to change your desk?"

But before he could ask Jiang Moli what kind of desk she wanted, he heard her ask him, "Would you like to try sitting on a desk?"

Lu Cheng was taken aback.

After realizing Jiang Moli's thoughts, he got out of bed without saying a word, put the items on the desk into the drawer, took out a blanket and spread it on the table, and then carried Jiang Moli from the bed to the table.

The two embraced and kissed, like a perfect mortise and tenon joint, continuing what they hadn't finished before.

After half an hour.

Lu Cheng carried the exhausted Jiang Moli back to bed, placed a hot water bottle in her arms, and kissed her delicate lips.
"Don't go to sleep yet, I'll go make you a bowl of brown sugar water to warm you up."

Jiang Moli was so tired that she didn't want to move her fingers and had no appetite. With her eyelids still heavy, she refused, "I'm not eating. I want to sleep."

After saying that, she closed her eyes, her long, raven-feather-like eyelashes covering her eyelids, making her look cute and sweet.

Lu Cheng's heart softened completely. He lowered his head and kissed her lips, tucked her in, got up and put the desk back in its original place, then turned off the light, went to bed, and embraced his sweet and soft wife, falling asleep contentedly.

……

The next day, after breakfast, Lu Cheng and Jiang Moli went out to the department store.

With the Spring Festival approaching, the department store was packed with people, and the counters were bustling with activity, like a battlefield.

Jiang Moli was somewhat tempted.

Her task progress has reached 8589/10000. There are at least a thousand people in this department store every day. If she stays here for a few days, she might be able to complete the task.

"System, should I leave immediately after completing the task, or is there a grace period?"

"After completing the mission, the host must leave the mission world and return to their original world within seven days."

"What will happen if I don't leave within seven days?"

"That will be considered as the host forfeiting the mission rewards. The host can stay here and live as an ordinary person, but I must remind the host that if you choose to stay, you will never be able to return to your original world."

Is it possible for me to remain here, but for my mission bonus to be inherited by my immediate family from my original world?

"No, the mission rewards can only be claimed by the host himself/herself."

"How about we compromise? I only want ten million, and you find a way to give that ten million to my biological mother from my original world, okay?"

"Host, are you really going to give up a 100 million prize for a mere man?"

Jiang Moli gazed at the tall, broad-shouldered body of the man in front of her.

As if sensing her gaze, Lu Cheng turned around, his eyes full of concern.

Are you tired from walking?

There were so many people that he was worried Jiang Moli would be jostled, so he walked ahead to clear a path so that Jiang Moli could walk more easily behind him.

Jiang Moli shook her head, signaling him to keep walking.

He continued the conversation with the system in his mind: "System, let me do the math with you. In my original world, there would be plenty of socialites and heiresses who would want to marry a man like him. Let alone a hundred million, there would be plenty of people willing to offer a billion or even a hundred billion. If I were to exchange a hundred million for him, I would still be making a profit."

System: "Host, I admit you have a point. So, are you sure you want to stay here?"

Jiang Moli: "Then can you tell me about the current situation of my relatives in the world?"

"No, I don't have that function."

Jiang Moli sneered mercilessly, "Then you're really useless."

system:"……"

Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and shoved Jiang Moli hard.

"What's wrong with you? Can't you watch where you're going? You stepped on my foot! My brand new shoes, look what you've done to them!"

Jiang Moli looked at the other person's big suede shoes and said, "I was wondering what was hurting my feet. Turns out you put your shoes under my feet. Apologize to me."

Hearing Jiang Moli speak, Lu Cheng, who was in front, quickly stopped and turned around to protect her.

"what happened?"

The other person looked at Lu Cheng and said, "Are you two a couple? Your wife stepped on my foot, and you expect me to apologize to her? Are you even being reasonable?" Lu Cheng glanced at the other person's shoes and asked Jiang Moli in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

"I'll handle this myself."

After quickly finishing her sentence, Jiang Moli said to the man, "Forget it, I'm well-mannered and won't argue with you. You can leave now."

"Hey, what kind of manners do you have? You stepped on someone and you still think you're right?"

Jiang Moli: "Then call the police."

Putting aside the fact that the police wouldn't get involved in such trivial disputes, even if they were willing, it wouldn't escalate to the point of going to the police station—that would be too much of a hassle.

"Running into you, you silly old woman, first thing in the morning is my bad luck!" the other person cursed as they walked away.

"Disdain value +1, 10000 yuan credited."

Along the way, Lu Cheng protected Jiang Moli even more closely to prevent her from being stepped on or squeezed by others.

After finally making it to the second floor, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

The second floor mainly sells furniture, appliances, and hardware, unlike the first floor which has a large demand for daily necessities and groceries, so there are far fewer shoppers on the second floor.

This time, the two chose a classic wrought iron bed, because they couldn't let the wrought iron bed collapse again.

After buying the bed, since it was still early, the two went to the third floor to pick out a coat for Jiang Dahai.

After all, it's the Lunar New Year, and as the son-in-law, Lu Cheng has to show some appreciation to his father-in-law, Jiang Dahai.

Jiang Moli took a fancy to a thick jacket, while Lu Cheng chose a cotton-padded coat.

As the two were discussing which item to buy, Jiang Moli accidentally bumped into someone from behind.

Looking back, it turns out, what a coincidence!

Upon seeing Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng, Meng Wei's smile vanished.

"Third brother."

Looking at Lu Cheng's cold, sculpted face, Meng Wei felt a pang of indescribable bitterness welling up inside her.

Time seemed to have been exceptionally kind to this man, leaving no trace on him, but instead sculpting him into someone even more composed, reserved, and powerful.

While Meng Wei was staring at Lu Cheng, Jiang Moli was also sizing up her new boyfriend.

"What a coincidence, we've run into each other again. Is this your new boyfriend?"

As soon as Jiang Moli noticed He Ming, Meng Wei's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively hid He Ming behind her back.

"Xiaowei, are these two your friends?"

Meng Wei forced a smile and introduced Lu Cheng to He Ming: "This is Lu Cheng. Our two families are old friends. I call him Third Brother. Third Brother, this is He Ming, my fiancé."

As for Jiang Moli, she chose to ignore her.

"Hello, Comrade He, this is my wife, Jiang Moli."

Lu Cheng took the initiative to exchange pleasantries with He Ming and introduced Jiang Moli in the process.

Meng Wei felt a pang of bitterness at the mention of Lu Cheng's name.

She had imagined this scene in her mind no less than a hundred times, but in her imagination, the lover Lu Cheng spoke of should be her.

"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Lu."

He Ming's accent made Lu Cheng raise an eyebrow. "Comrade He isn't from the mainland?"

"I'm from Gangcheng, and I came here to invest and set up a factory."

Upon hearing that He Ming was from Hong Kong, Jiang Moli couldn't help but glance at Meng Wei.

Meng Wei casually raised her hand to flip her hair, and the diamond watch on her wrist almost blinded Jiang Moli.

He Ming, true to his businessman nature, was very talkative: "It's almost Chinese New Year, so I brought Xiao Wei here to pick out two pretty outfits. But your Rongcheng is too small; I didn't see any nice clothes after looking around. I'll take Xiao Wei to Hong Kong after the New Year. If Mrs. Lu has time, we can go together."
